Still Life with Nautilus Cup - Conservatorium Hotel
This is one of 4 still life images commissioned by The Conservatorium Hotel in Amsterdam.
It is a most beautiful hotel, in the museum district. The prints are quite large, I'll post photo's of them in a room soon. I have long wanted a Nautilus Cup, Claesz and Kalf both used them, but they are only to be found in museums and in the hands of very wealthy collectors. Yves Saint Laurent had a wonderful collection of Nautilus Cups and Pineapple Cups, one of his better Nautilus Cups sold for 500,000 Euros. Faced with those astronomical prices, little wonder I decided to make my own.
